Perhaps this means that a Spirit-filled believer can act as a high priest and intercede for someone who is burdened down with sin and relieve them of some of that sin burden. A person can become so burdened and bent down with the guilt, condemnation and shame of sin that they cannot easily come to YHVH. By relieving them of some of that burden, they may be more able to come to salvation. This seems to be what the high priest was doing on Yom Kippur in Lev 16, and perhaps Job was doing this when interceding for his children on their birthdays.<\/p>\n<p><b>John 20:23,<i> If you forgive the sins [NKJV] <\/i>or <i>Whose soever sins ye remit [KJV].<\/i><\/b> As in the binding and loosing scriptures (Matt 16:19 and 18:18), Yeshua is giving his disciples judicial authority to declare a person innocent or guilty (or bound or loosed) of the charges made against him by someone else. This seems to go hand-in-hand with Yeshua giving them the keys of the kingdom (Matt 16:19) as his spiritual authorities and representatives on earth. Along with this, he gave them power over demonic forces and Elohim\u2019s enemies (Luke 9:1; 10:19), including over sickness and disease (Mark 16:17\u201318).<\/p>\n<div class=\"evernoteSiteMemory\"><a href=\"javascript:\" onclick=\"Evernote.doClip({title: 'You Have Priestly, Spiritual Authority in Yeshua\u2026Use It!',url: 'https:\/\/hoshanarabbah.org\/blog\/2017\/04\/04\/spiritual-authority-in-yeshua\/',contentID: 'post-10591',suggestTags: 'Bind and Loose,Fogiveness,John,Sin,Spiritual Authority',providerName: 'Hoshana Rabbah Blog',styling: 'text' });return false\" class=\"evernoteSiteMemoryLink\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.evernote.com\/article-clipper.png\" \nclass=\"evernoteSiteMemoryButton\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evernoteSiteMemoryClear\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>John 20:22, Remit.
